GenomeNet - (Found June 19, 2008 )

Network of database and computational resources including KEGG (pathways, interactions, etc.) and DBGETLinkDB (an integrated database retrieval system). It also hosts several web-based tools for sequence analysis (ie. Blast, Motif, Clustal W)

HGNC: HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee - (Found June 19, 2008 )

The HGNC approves a unique gene name and symbol for each known human gene. The Human Gene Nomenclature Database (Genew) is searchable, and contains all approved symbols. For each symbol, if known, the database associates gene location, aliases, previous symbols and links out to sequence data.

HMDB - (Found June 19, 2008 )

The Human Metabolome Database (HMDB) is a freely available electronic database containing detailed information about small molecule metabolites found in the human body. The database supports extensive text, sequence, chemical structure and relational query searches.

Human Ageing Genomic Resources - (Found June 19, 2008 )

The Human Ageing Genomic Resources (HAGR) website provides tools and curated databases relevant to the genetics of human ageing. GenAge is a database of genes related to human ageing, and AnAge is a multi-species database facilitating the comparative biology of ageing. The Ageing Research Computational Tools (ARCT) is a collection of Perl modules to assist comparative genomics research.

Human BAC Ends - (Found June 19, 2008 )

TIGR BAC end sequencing project; query genomic sequence or clone name against database of BAC end sequences to find set of minimally overlapping clones; these sequences provide highly specific markers.
